NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Hank Williams Jr. is about to have his say.
Williams has cut a new song, “I’ll Keep My … ,” calling out “Fox & Friends” and ESPN after an interview last week on the Fox News show led to the end of his association with the sports network and “Monday Night Football,” long home to his “Are you ready for some football?” theme.
He’s also scheduled to appear on “The View” and “Hannity” today to discuss the uproar that sprung up after he compared President Obama to Adolf Hitler.
In the song, Williams, son of country-music icon Hank Williams, sings: “So Fox ‘n Friends wanna put me down/Ask for my opinion/Twist it all around.”
Early in the song, he says the country is “going down the drain” and becoming “the United Socialist States of America.” He mentions keeping “Fox & Friends” and ESPN out of your home toward the end of the song.
It could be on iTunes as early as this morning.
